Lakeland man killed in SR-429 crash

Two people were thrown from a 2005 Toyota pickup truck pulling a trailer early this morning when the driver lost control of the wheel on State Road 429 at Mile Marker 8.

One man, Gary Colgin of Lakeland, was killed in the crash. He and a second passenger whose name has not yet been released were riding in the back of the pickup when Toby Lee Case, 39, lost control of the vehicle just after 6 a.m.

The truck flipped over several times. The second passenger was taken to Orlando Reginal Medical Center in critical condition.

Troopers say Case and the three other passengers who were inside the truck all survived and only suffered minor injuries.
